Re: CCSID of QSHELL generated file not getting set

Thanks, Mark. That wasn't it either.

QIBM_CCSID is documented, from what I can tell, as the environment
variable to use for this.
https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/ssw_ibm_i_74/rzahz/rzahzvariable.htm

The CCSID of the files created is 37, the job's CCSID (which matches the
description for the QIBM_CCSID env var), not 819 or 1208 which is the
default for QIBM_PASE_CCSID depending on OS version.

Scott K even mentions QIBM_CCSID here:
https://archive.midrange.com/midrange-l/200611/msg01064.html

Actually in thinking about these environment variables and how we need to
adjust them for this and that so much now, it's almost like multiple LDAs
now with the same dangers (ie, packaged software changes or removes them
causing issues with home grown software, or vice versa).



I do recall having an issue for the PASE CCSID before

Brad,

I think you need to be looking at these environment variables:
PASE_LANG QIBM_PASE_CCSID

Note that it does not seem to pay any attention to whatever you might set
in QIBM_CCSID.

Hope that helps,

I can try, but environment variable QIBM_CCSID is supposed to do this.
that's why I'm wondering if I should look for a PTF or if I am misreading
something.

Bradley,

Try creating an empty file with the proper CCSID of 1252 (EDTF should
have that ability) and see if that resolves the issue. I'm assuming
that sysval QCCSID is set correctly to a specific ID (e.g. 37).

I am working on a project that requires to unzip files during the

I am using unzip in QSH.

When I set debug on for the process it will output the zip results to a
log
file. But that file is always created with CCSID of 37.

I found the QIBM_CCSID environment variable but that seems to have no
affect.... here is info from my job:

QIBM_CCSID '1252'
QIBM_QSH_CMD_OUTPUT 'FILE=/debug/file_unzip.log'

The first env var is set, then the second so we store the results of
the
unzip.

It is view-able using WRKLNK but I'd rather use a text editor, and it's
garbage of course when viewing from the IFS.

Is there something else I need to set? This seems to be the way it's
done... This is a V7R4 system right now.

TIA.
